Las técnicas de transposición literaria de la leyenda de Aline Sitoe Diatta en Los tambores de la memoria de Boubacar Boris Diop

Abstract

This article is a study of the legend of Aline Sitoe Diatta in Boubacar Boris Diop's Les tambours de la mémoire. We analyze the way the author has inscribed the legend in the novelistic narrative and the different devices he uses for the literary transposition of the story of Aline Sitoe Diatta. For this purpose, we devoted the first part to the theory of the legend which allowed us to identify the paradigms of the genre from which we will interpret, in the second part, the legendary in the novel of Boris Diop.
